Get Rid of Mice at Home

Combine traps, secure food and gap repairs. Keep children and pets away from traps.

Find the active route

Look for nibbled packets and small droppings along edges. Do not touch contamination with bare hands.

Check the tiny gaps

Mice can enter openings around six millimetres wide. Inspect pipe entries and door bottoms.

Use mouse-sized traps

Put the baited trigger beside the wall. Protect access and check daily.

Close the food containers

Store grains in hard containers with tight lids. Clear crumbs and pet food after meals.

Repair and clean safely

Secure steel wool with sealant in suitable small gaps. Wet-disinfect droppings before wiping; never sweep dry.

Keep watching for fresh signs

Recheck repairs and food storage. Continuing activity needs professional help; a deterrent adds one layer.
